SIR ALEX FERGUSON, Sir Bobby Charlton and Patrice Evra celebrated Manchester United’s 4-0 victory over AZ Alkmaar together in a VIP box at Old Trafford.
The legendary Red Devils trio were snapped at the Theatre of Dreams as their former club put on a scintillating display to clinch top spot in their Europa League group.

Evra posted the photo on social media and wrote: “What a night. #SirAlex #SirBobby #ManUtd @ManUtd #ilovethisgame #positive4evra.”
The picture received a great deal of love from United fans as it was a rare opportunity to see stars of different eras together in one shot.
One supporter wrote: “Love this! Three legends and three of my heroes!”, while another added “What a picture!”
One fan even put United’s recent good form – which has seen them win their last three games – down to the fact that Evra has returned to the club.
They said: “@Evra since you’ve come home I don’t think it’s a coincidence @ManUtd has played better. Sometimes you need to see what it means to where that badge and what it means to be a supporter of this club. Good or bad. That’s a role model to me. Happy Holidays to you and yours!”
Charlton and Evra made a combined total of 1,137 appearances for United, while Ferguson was in charge of the club for more than 1,400 games.
On the night, Mason Greenwood stole the show as he netted his first brace for the club, with Ashley Young and Juan Mata also getting on the score sheet.
United host Everton on Sunday as they look to extend their unbeaten run in the Premier League to six games.
They currently sit fifth in the table, five points behind Chelsea in fourth.
